Short and sweet it is a picture book biography. According to the summary, it is a first in a series that will "explore the lives of figures who have been overlooked or overshadowed in their fields."
> MIT researchers found evidence that topology can stabilize magnetic ordering, even well above the point at which magnetism normally breaks down. Their work reveals how topological structures known as Weyl nodes found in an exotic semi-metal can significantly increase the working temperature for magnetic devices.

<p class="a-plus-plus">Individuals facing physical and mental multimorbidity and social marginalization are considered to have “complex health and social needs.” This study seeks to address the following question: what mental health care experiences are valued by individuals with complex health and social needs? Semi-structured interviews were conducted with fifteen individuals experiencing complex health and social needs, including homelessness. Interview data was analyzed using an interpretive description approach. Participants valued services and providers who cared <em class="a-plus-plus">with them and for them. Care for</em> service users with complex needs required flexible processes and individualized care planning and treatment. <em class="a-plus-plus">Care with</em> service users demanded genuine, collaborative interpersonal interactions. These elements were evident across steps in an episode of care, from intake through assessment and treatment to transitions and discharge. These findings highlight particular challenges in operationalizing evidence-based care in mental health care for people with complex health and social needs.</p>

I think bars should have #gaming#karaoke nights; people take turns playing whatever #videoGames they are good at on a projector for the whole bar to watch. Get a drag queen to be "Master of Controllers" describing the action and calling up new players.

As more mainstream media open accounts here on Mastodon, try to follow them. As they build up audiences here, it will make it easier for them to abandon that Xhit site over there.
Does anyone have a list of good media accounts here?

@bryanalexandee I've had an abiding interest in disciplinarity and interdisciplinarity since a Stanford professor could not answer how his field (CALL - Computer-Assisted Language Learning) was a discipline. Disciplinarity is also a weak point of Indian academia, as you notice, e.g., with journals combining disparate fields. Therefore, I started a culmination of my work by explaining the difference between a field and a discipline, then I defined terms related to online education. If you haven't already read it, check it out some time: "Online Education as a Discipline" at https://doi.org/10.20935/AL434 or https://www.researchgate.net/publication/353073973
Can't wait to try them at the office. If they are as incredible there as they are here with just my wife and kids, it might make me waver in my belief that there is no God.
My next novel is #TheLostCause, a hopeful tale of the climate emergency. As with all my audiobooks, Amazon refuses to sell this one, so I made my own indie audiobook and I'm pre-selling it right now through #Kickstarter:
